I just can't stop thinking that somewhere along the line one of the Guidos should have reacted to handing out global locks left and right. I mean, as long as its only you and your friends using it. But once it starts spreading, these are the kind of issues that need to be kicked out of the way asap. Lock granularity affects the entire design of client code, reducing it basically means rewriting everything. Ah well, at least it serves as a warning sign for budding language composers as myself. Snabel did full threading before it walked or talked: https://github.com/andreas-gone-wild/snackis/blob/master/snabel.md https://github.com/andreas-gone-wild/snackis/blob/master/sna... And to any Pythoneers with sore toes out there: pick a better language or learn to live with it, down-voting me will do nothing to solve your problems. It's a tool, we're supposed to pick the best one for the job; not decide on one for life and defend it to death. Imagine what could happen if language communities started working together rather than competing. There is no price to be won, we're all being taken for a ride.
